FORT LAUDERDALE, FL – (June 29, 2015) – The Community Foundation of Broward has jumped to number 90 in the Top 100 Community Foundations by Assets Size, according to the newly released 2014 Columbus Survey of Community Foundations. The Community Foundation of Broward made the list for the first time in 2013 with $153 million in assets and moved up the rankings in 2014 with assets of $173 million.

“Though we believe asset size doesn’t matter, it does in fact reflect public confidence and fiscal accountability,” said Linda Carter, President and CEO of the Community Foundation of Broward. “If we weren’t making a difference in the community, engaged philanthropists wouldn’t continue to create and grow their Funds at the Community Foundation of Broward.

The community foundation sector is more than a 100 years old and comprised of 1,700 community foundations worldwide, of which more than 700 are based in the United States.
